Reno Gazette-Journal sports columnist Chris Murray is one of 61 voters in the college football AP Top 25 poll. Here is a look at the biggest movers and shakers in his poll this week.

Team on the rise

* TCU: The biggest game of the week was the Big 12 showdown between TCU and Oklahoma State, with the Horned Frogs pulling the upset and moving from No. 22 on my ballot up to No. 11. Oklahoma State, meanwhile, fell from No. 11 on my ballot to No. 15. (I was a little lower on the Cowboys to start, having them ranked five spots below the consensus). Georgia’s win over Mississippi State vaulted the Bulldogs from No. 10 to No. 6, which still might be a little light given their two wins over Top 25 teams.

Team on the fall

* Florida State: The Seminoles are still searching for their first win after losing at home to North Carolina State, 27-21, this week to drop to 0-2 (it opened the season with a loss to Alabama). Florida State dropped off my ballot after being ranked 13th the week prior. Some had the Seminoles No. 1 in their preseason poll, but Florida State hasn't lived up to the hype and lost QB Deondre Francois for the season in the opener.

* The Mountain West went 1-3 in non-conference play, with losses to Washington State (by Nevada), Virginia (by Boise State) and Ohio State (by UNLV), with a win over Tulsa (by New Mexico). San Diego State and Hawaii both picked up close conference wins while Utah State blew out San Jose State.
